Superintendent Corkery reports that the vear just closed has been a menib- rable one in the history of the depart- ment. Shortage of water forced work on the department for which no pro- vision was made and some needed improvements had to be deferred. At Falrview the grass and brush were cut and burned and the well- house cleaned. The Venturi meters have been an invaluable help to the department. The daily average of water used has decreased over 00,000 gallons since last September. During Aprii the daily average was 1,300,600 gallons. 3 At Meadow brook the trenches were cleaned, and the grass and brush were burned. Wells were drilled. hopinz to get a supply by pumpling, but thouzh they went to a depth of 430 and 264 feet it did not pay. During the coming year the depart- ment will be obliged to devote most of its time to the work connectéd with the Stony brook water supply and many needed improvements in our wa- ter system can be well deferred until that is completed. The most import- ant recommendation of the national board of fire underwriters was that our present supply of water be in- creased, and 1 believe it would be to the best inferests of the city to wait until that is accomplished before in- creasing the size of our mains. He recommends placing gates on all hydrant branches, installing a number of meters. each Vear until the whole city is metered, doing away with dead ends wherever possible. * The rainfall for the vear amounted to 33.85 inches, which is but .36 of an inch better than last year. The aver- age annual rainfall gince 1871 has been 45.97 inches. During the year there have been 14,703 feet of new pipe laid, eight new hydrants placed, and 28 new gates put in. There were 46 new services laid and 58 new meters put in. There are now 607 meters owned by the board and 25 private meters. Inspector W. P..Ryan reports that the inspection, because of the short- age, was limited to the section where | consumers were liable to be careless | and defective fixtures made frequent inspaction necessary. In addition to| inspection he has read all-the meters, numbering 1,680, of which 46 were read more than once. There were 1,938 houses inspected, 2,624 families visited, 698 stores, schoolhouses, offices, barns: Wwater closets inspected 2,948; bathtubs 1,587; urinals 128, There were 589 defective closets and 296 faucets. There were 496 extra calls for speclal inspections. FIRE COMMISSIONERS MAKE THEIR REPORT. Cutting Down of Appropriation and Use of Auto Embarrassed Depart- | ment — Recommendation of Auto Combination Wagon for Economy. In the annual report of the board of | fire commissioners it is stated that 19 meetings were held, and because of lack Jf funds no adJitions, improve- ments”or necessary repairs were made. Station No. 3 is in a dangerous con- dition. At the city meeting June 14, 1910, when the appropriation was voted, the mayor misstated the amount of the appropriation for the previous year, with_the result that the department | faced the year with $1,700 less than| the two previous vears, On Novem- ber 21, because of agshortage of wa- ter 400 feet of thref inch hose was| purchased at an expense of $500, and an auto hired and used for lhree months at a cost of $558.60, thus fu ther embarrassing teh department in addition to the $1,700. Had we not been confrorted with these extra tems a balance for the year of $67.82 would have resulted, but because of them the appropriation’ has been exceeded by $990.78, which is considered well spent, in view of the fact that during the pe- riod the auto was in commission no water at all was used, as compared th 25,000 gallons during the corre: ronding period of the precding year: that the loss per fire was $1 compwed with §136.77 of the previous and that out of 31 alarms to Dept. of Public Werks.
